The turnout at Monday night’s MOJO Jazz Jambalaya was phenomenal. 

Singer Angie Powers was the star of the show and certainly channeled the purrrringly seductive Ms. Lee.

She was backed by guitarist Jim Armstrong, drummer Jimmy Roebuck, bassist Jo Jo Morris, and saxophonist Sandy Spivey.

Don’t forget Monday night’s Jazz Appreciation Month Jambalaya at Gulf City Lodge (601 State St.) at 6:30 p.m. If you have not been to the Gulf City Lodge – go tonight.
In addition to being one of the Bay Area’s most formidable saxophonists, Rebecca Barry has been busy the last few years teaching students at Faulkner State Community College.

This big band is bringing their full and versatile sound downtown at the end of the month to help MOJO celebrate in style. Barry promises the show will not only entertain, but will be ideal for getting feet moving on the dance floor.

Entrance is $10, $7 for MOJO members with student and military rates available and includes a light jambalaya dinner. This is the month when we encourage attendees to bring some of their favorite springtime dish to share with others. A cash bar will be available.
